Why is the system dad angry again?

Chapter 101 Arriving at Anbei City

After bandaging Baili Changan's wound, she regained her strength. She stood up, clasped her fists at them, and made a salute, "Little girl Baili Changan, thank you three benefactors for saving your life!"

Qiao Yuanji was stunned for a moment. Is this Baili Changan?Encountered this?Are you so lucky?Before, they were talking about finding someone from the Baili family to cooperate!

Ye Xiao's expression didn't change that much, but there was still a trace of surprise in his eyes.

"May I ask the names of the three young masters?"

"My name is Lin Tangzhou." Lin Tangzhou introduced lightly, "This is Ye Xiao, and this is Qiao Yuanji."

Baili Changan asked: "Are the three young masters going to Anbei City?"

Lin Tangzhou nodded.

"Me too, I wonder if I can ask the three young masters to help me?" Baili Chang'an hesitated for a moment, fearing that they would refuse, and then said, "I'm afraid those killers are still ambushing me. I wonder if you three can take me with you? When we get to Anbeicheng If I find my brother later, I will repay him with a big gift!"

Lin Tangzhou and Qiao Yuanji's eyes lit up when they heard that there was a big gift. Although this was a secular world, their money was limited after all. Now that someone was giving them money, they must be willing, so they agreed directly.

Ye Xiao helplessly raised his forehead, these two are really money-crazed!

Baili Chang'an was overjoyed and quickly led them to Anbei City. She was riding a horse when she came, but during the pursuit, the horse was killed, so now she can only go back on foot.

Ye Xiao: "How did Miss Baili meet these killers?" Ye Xiao, the fox, used his trick of clichés and began to repeat Baili Changan's words one by one.

Baili Changan, the eldest lady who has been held in the palm of her hand since she was a child, was silent for a moment, and said with some embarrassment: "There is nothing wrong with this. My surname is Baili, and I am the eldest lady of the General's Mansion. This time I am with my brother. Who should have invited these killers to come to Anbeicheng to handle the case?"

She gritted her teeth on the word "please" and said, "Do you know what happened in Anbeicheng recently?"

Lin Tangzhou nodded and said: "I know, I heard something on the road, and I'm a little curious about what happened? Everyone looks panicked when they mention it."

Baili Chang'an said: "Well, for ordinary people, it is OK, but I don't know the specific situation. If you are interested, I can ask my brother."

These few words completely covered the girl's words. Lin Tangzhou even sighed with emotion, this girl is so simple.

But in fact, Ye Xiao actually refused.

He said: "No need, you are handling the case after all, and it is not easy for outsiders like us to interfere."

Baili Changan smiled at him. Now that she had said so, she no longer forced him.

After walking for about an hour, they passed through the woods and saw the city in the distance. The city walls were old and mottled, and the dirt road outside was bumpy. There were still a few soldiers standing guard on the city wall, and there were only a few people coming and going at the dilapidated city gate. and chariots and horses

Lin Tangzhou muttered: "This is different from what I imagined!"

Baili Changan happened to hear his mumbling clearly and asked curiously: "What does Mr. Lin's imagination of Anbei City look like?"

Lin Tangzhou was silent for a moment. The city he imagined was as majestic as written in a storybook, with red bricks and green tiles, sparkling carriages and horses, and a steady flow of people.

Baili Chang'an laughed when he heard this and said: "What my benefactor described may only be like Kyoto and Tai'an City. This Anbei City is just a small city, far less prosperous and lively."

What she said made sense, and Lin Tangzhou touched his nose in embarrassment.

Although Anbei City is not considered luxurious, you can still see the atmosphere of living and working in peace and contentment. There are teahouses, taverns, workshops, and merchant shops, and the crowds are constantly shouting.

"Three benefactors, my brother and I are staying at the inn. If you are willing, you can come with me." After entering the city, Baili Changan said to them.

Just as Lin Tangzhou was about to speak, he was overtaken by Qiao Yuanji: "Thank you very much, Miss Baili, but let's just find an inn! As for the meeting with the Major General, we still need to clean up the matter. We are dusty and disheveled. It’s not easy to go.”

His words were very polite and refined, which made Lin Tangzhou look at Qiao Yuanji with admiration.

"Okay, there is an inn here." Baili Changan happened to see an inn and took the initiative to go in and help them pay and book a room. "Then I will go back and explain the situation to my brother first, and the three benefactors will have a good rest first. , I will come to find you again tomorrow."

"Okay, Miss Baili, walk slowly!" Qiao Yuanji said, holding a fan and cupping his fists.

After Baili Changan could no longer be seen, Lin Tangzhou said: "I can't tell you on weekdays, but you still say such refined words!"

Qiao Yuanji smiled coquettishly and said, "Don't you think my dad and I often discuss business with some people? You'll know it once you meet them."

"Ye Xiao, did you see something?" Lin Tangzhou turned the topic to Ye Xiao again.

Ye Xiao nodded, pointed upstairs, and motioned for them to go back to their rooms.

After entering the room, Qiao Yuanji placed a barrier as usual.

Ye Xiao said: "We are outsiders, and we only meet Baili Changan by chance. If we directly agree to her previous request, she will definitely be suspicious."

"Is she testing us?" Lin Tangzhou frowned, remembering Baili Changan's appearance before, but he couldn't tell that he was testing us.

"We are all testing her, so she won't test us anymore?" Qiao Yuanji tapped Lin Tangzhou's head with a fan and said with a smile, "She took the initiative to tell about Anbeicheng's affairs as a test."

Ye Xiao said: "But she is testing whether we are also here to kill her, or..."

"The timing of our appearance was perfect!"

Lin Tangzhou was dumbfounded. Is there so much knowledge in these few sentences?But if you think about it carefully, the strange events in Anbeicheng should be strictly controlled in order not to cause panic. How could Baili Changan tell a few strangers who met for the first time in detail?

Qiao Yuanji knew from the look on his face that he had figured it out. He changed the subject and said, "I plan to go investigate tonight."

"where to?"

"What?"

Lin Tangzhou and Ye Xiao asked questions at the same time, both of them staring at Qiao Yuanji.

Qiao Yuanji's fan opened, covering half of his smiling face, "Of course I'm going to see the legendary major general! Maybe I can overhear something interesting!" He raised his hand towards them. He raised his chin and said, "What about you? It's still early and there are many people on the street. Why don't you go get some information?"

This is what Lin Tangzhou originally thought. Although Anbei City is not particularly prosperous, it is much better than Donghua Town.

"Let's go then!"
